6. Uniform speed – (or constant speed) a body moves with a constant speed in a straight line if it travels
equal distances in equal intervals of time
Example:
Table 3-1. Uniform Speed in a Straight Line
Distance (m) 4 8 12 16 20 24
Time (s) 1 2 3 4 5 6
8. Average speed – the total distance traveled divided by the total time elapsed;
𝑡𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑡𝑟𝑎𝑣𝑒𝑙𝑒𝑑
- 𝑎𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑠𝑝𝑒𝑒𝑑 = 𝑡𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒 𝑒𝑙𝑎𝑝𝑠𝑒𝑑
- the speed of an object may increase or decrease as it moves so average speed is computed
10. Uniform Acceleration – (or uniformly accelerated motion) a body moves with a uniform acceleration
in a straight line if it travels equal intervals of velocity in equal intervals of time
Example:
Table 3-2. Uniform Acceleration in a Straight Line
Distance (m) 4 8 12 16 20
Time (s) 1 2 3 4 5
